PURPOSE: To (1) develop a deep learning system (DLS) using a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) for identification of pneumothorax, (2) compare its performance to first-year radiology residents, and (3) evaluate the ability of a DLS to augment ...
Monitoring patients through robotics telehealth systems is an interesting scenario where patients' conditions, and their environment, are dynamic and unknown variables. We propose to improve telehealth systems' features to include the ability to serv...
BACKGROUND: Deep-learning algorithms to annotate electrocardiograms (ECGs) and classify different types of cardiac arrhythmias with the use of a single-lead ECG input data set have been developed. It remains to be determined whether these algorithms ...
Emergency physicians seek wisdom through personal resilience, deliberate reasoning, clinical consensus and reflective practice. However, there is a limit to how useful psychological training, clinical guidelines and audit initiatives can be in the fa...
STUDY OBJECTIVE: The contribution of emergency medicine clinicians' nontechnical skills in providing safe, high-quality care in the emergency department (ED) is well known. In 2015, the UK Royal College of Emergency Medicine introduced explicit valid...

Suspected fractures are among the most common reasons for patients to visit emergency departments (EDs), and X-ray imaging is the primary diagnostic tool used by clinicians to assess patients for fractures. Missing a fracture in a radiograph often ha...
AIM: Triage is important in identifying high-risk patients amongst many less urgent patients as emergency department (ED) overcrowding has become a national crisis recently. This study aims to validate that a Deep-learning-based Triage and Acuity Sco...
